Description

本発明は、複数種類の対象物を把持・組付けするためのロボットハンドに関するものである。   The present invention relates to a robot hand for gripping and assembling a plurality of types of objects.

複数種類の把持対象物(ワーク)を把持・組付けする従来のロボットハンドとしては、2個の把持爪を有する平行な2つの指が対向する方向に並進して開閉することにより、合計4個の把持爪でワークを押さえる4点接触式平行2指ハンドがあった。このようなロボットハンドにおいては、2つの指にそれぞれ取り付けられた2個の把持爪の間隔を把持対象物の大きさに応じてそれぞれ調整できるよう構成されている(例えば、特許文献1参照。)。   As a conventional robot hand for gripping and assembling a plurality of types of gripping objects (workpieces), a total of four robot hands can be opened and closed by translating and opening two parallel fingers in opposite directions. There was a four-point contact type parallel two-fingered hand that presses the workpiece with a gripping nail. Such a robot hand is configured such that the interval between two gripping claws attached to two fingers can be adjusted according to the size of the gripping object (see, for example, Patent Document 1). .

特開平11−262886号公報(第3頁、図1、図2)Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 11-262886 (page 3, FIG. 1, FIG. 2)

このようなロボットハンドにあっては、把持爪の間隔を調整して、大きな対象物と小さい対象物を同一のロボットハンドで把持することができるが、把持爪が指面に設けられているので、大きな対象物を把持するためには把持爪が設けられている指面の指面積を広くする必要がある。一方、このロボットハンドにより小さい対象物を把持し組み付け作業を行う場合には、上記指面積が大きいため、指が周辺に干渉する問題があった。
また、把持すべき複数の対象物の中に断面形状が円形の対象物がある場合には、安定して把持しにくい問題があった。例えば把持爪の長さを短くしていると、把持爪の間隔を広げた場合、把持爪ではなく指面が直接ワークと接触し、ワークとロボットハンドとの接触が4点ではなく2点接触となり安定しない。把持爪の長さを短く保ったまま4点接触させるには指間隔を狭くする必要があるが、指間隔を狭くすると4点接触であっても円形のワークを安定して把持できない。一方、把持爪を長くすると、把持爪の間隔を広げて4点接触により円形のワークを安定して把持することが可能であるが、指同士の間隔が長くなり、ロボットハンドが大型にならざるをえず、周囲と干渉する問題があった。
さらに、幅が途中で異なる対象物、十字型対象物、T字型対象物等は、対象物と指面とが干渉するため、把持しにくいという問題点があった。
In such a robot hand, a large object and a small object can be gripped by the same robot hand by adjusting the interval of the gripping nails, but the gripping nails are provided on the finger surface. In order to grip a large object, it is necessary to increase the finger area of the finger surface on which the gripping nails are provided. On the other hand, when a small object is held and assembled by the robot hand, there is a problem that the finger interferes with the periphery because the finger area is large.
In addition, when there is an object having a circular cross-section among a plurality of objects to be grasped, there is a problem that it is difficult to grasp stably. For example, if the length of the gripping nails is shortened and the gap between the gripping nails is widened, the finger surface, not the gripping nails, will directly contact the workpiece, and the contact between the workpiece and the robot hand will be two-point contact instead of four points. It is not stable. In order to make the four-point contact while keeping the length of the gripping claw short, it is necessary to narrow the finger interval. However, if the finger interval is narrowed, a circular workpiece cannot be stably grasped even with the four-point contact. On the other hand, if the gripping claws are lengthened, it is possible to widen the gap between the gripping claws and stably grip a circular workpiece by four-point contact, but the distance between fingers becomes long and the robot hand does not become large. First, there was a problem of interference with the surroundings.
Furthermore, there is a problem that an object having a different width, a cross-shaped object, a T-shaped object, and the like are difficult to grip because the object and the finger surface interfere with each other.

本発明は、かかる問題点を解決するためになされたものであり、複数の把持対象物を同一のハンドで把持できるロボットハンドであり、大きさの異なる複数種類の対象物を把持する際に、小さい対象物を把持する際も周囲との干渉を防止できるロボットハンドを提供することを目的としている。
また、幅が途中で異なる対象物、十字型対象物、T字型対象物等も容易に把持できるロボットハンドを提供することを目的としている。
The present invention was made to solve such problems, and is a robot hand that can grip a plurality of gripping objects with the same hand, and when gripping a plurality of types of objects having different sizes, An object of the present invention is to provide a robot hand that can prevent interference with the surroundings even when a small object is gripped.
It is another object of the present invention to provide a robot hand that can easily grip objects, cross-shaped objects, T-shaped objects, and the like that have different widths.

この発明に係るロボットハンドは、一対の把持部を互いに近接離反する方向に開閉し、把持対象物を上記一対の把持部で把持可能な把持機構を複数備えると共に、上記複数の把持機構の少なくとも1つを移動して上記複数の把持機構の相対位置を変更する相対位置変更用駆動機構を備えたロボットハンドであって、上記複数の把持機構は、上記一対の把持部と上記一対の把持部を支持する支持部とで構成される平面が、上記複数の把持機構の各開閉方向、及び上記相対位置変更用駆動機構による上記把持機構の移動方向に沿った面に対し交差するように並べられているものである。   The robot hand according to the present invention includes a plurality of gripping mechanisms capable of opening and closing a pair of gripping portions in directions close to and away from each other and gripping a gripping object with the pair of gripping portions, and at least one of the plurality of gripping mechanisms. A robot hand provided with a relative position changing drive mechanism for changing the relative positions of the plurality of gripping mechanisms by moving the pair of gripping mechanisms, wherein the plurality of gripping mechanisms include the pair of gripping portions and the pair of gripping portions. A plane constituted by a supporting part to be supported is arranged so as to intersect with each opening / closing direction of the plurality of gripping mechanisms and a plane along the moving direction of the gripping mechanism by the relative position changing drive mechanism. It is what.

この発明によれば、周囲との干渉を防止しながら、大きさや形状の異なる複数種類の対象物を把持・組み付けできる効果がある。   According to the present invention, there is an effect that a plurality of types of objects having different sizes and shapes can be gripped and assembled while preventing interference with the surroundings.

Further, a linear motor or an air cylinder may be adopted instead of the rotary electric motor.

図1のロボットハンドは把持機構1の指3,4間の距離、把持機構2の指6,7間の距離、把持機構1と把持機構2との間の距離を変更することにより、小さい対象物から大きい対象物まで、複数種類の対象物を同一のロボットハンドで把持でき、特に小さい対象物を把持する際、周囲との干渉を防止しながら把持することができる。
例えば断面形状が大きい四角形の把持対象物を把持した場合のロボットハンドと把持対象物の状態を図2に示す。図2(a)は把持対象物10と本実施の形態1のロボットハンドを下側から見た場合の図、図2(b)は把持対象物10と本実施の形態のロボットハンドを把持対象物10の側面から見た場合の図である。
把持機構1及び把持機構2を閉じることにより、それぞれ2箇所、合計4個所にて把持対象物10を把持しているため、安定した把持が可能となる。また、指の先端部には開閉軸(開閉方向A)と直交する面3a,4a,6a,7aを有しているので、この直交面3a,4a,6a,7aで把持対象物10を安定して把持することができる。
The robot hand of FIG. 1 is a small object by changing the distance between the fingers 3 and 4 of the gripping mechanism 1, the distance between the fingers 6 and 7 of the gripping mechanism 2, and the distance between the gripping mechanism 1 and the gripping mechanism 2. A plurality of types of objects from an object to a large object can be gripped by the same robot hand, and particularly when a small object is gripped, it can be gripped while preventing interference with the surroundings.
For example, FIG. 2 shows the state of the robot hand and the gripping target when a quadrangular gripping target having a large cross-sectional shape is gripped. FIG. 2A is a view when the grasped object 10 and the robot hand of the first embodiment are viewed from below, and FIG. 2B is a grasp object of the grasped object 10 and the robot hand of the present embodiment. It is a figure at the time of seeing from the side of the thing.
By closing the gripping mechanism 1 and the gripping mechanism 2, the gripping target object 10 is gripped at a total of four locations at two locations, so that stable gripping is possible. Further, since the tip of the finger has surfaces 3a, 4a, 6a, 7a orthogonal to the opening / closing axis (opening / closing direction A), the object to be grasped 10 is stabilized by these orthogonal surfaces 3a, 4a, 6a, 7a. And can be gripped.

図3は同じ本実施の形態1のロボットハンドで断面形状が小さい四角形の把持対象物を把持した場合のロボットハンドと把持対象物の状態を示す図であり、図3(a)は下側から見た場合の図、図3(b)は側面から見た場合の図である。
大きい四角形の把持対象物を把持した場合と同様に、把持機構1及び把持機構2を閉じることにより、それぞれ2箇所、合計4個所(直交面3a,4a,6a,7a)にて把持対象物10を安定して把持している。
また、各把持機構に設けた一対の指とこの一対の指を支持する駆動機構とで形成される平面PBが互いに対向し、これら平面PBが把持機構1,2の各開閉方向Aおよび移動方向Cに沿った面PAに対し直交するように配置されているので、把持機構1と把持機構2との間の距離を最小にしても、駆動機構5及び駆動機構8が把持対象物10の上部にあるため、把持対象物10周辺と駆動機構5及び駆動機構8とが干渉することが無い。
従って、把持対象物10を周辺に障害物がある箇所に挿入する作業のように周囲との干渉が問題となる場合でも作業可能である。
FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating a state of the robot hand and the gripping object when the same gripping object having a small cross-sectional shape is gripped by the robot hand according to the first embodiment, and FIG. FIG. 3B is a diagram when viewed from the side, and FIG.
As in the case of gripping a large rectangular gripping object, the gripping object 10 is held at two places (four orthogonal faces 3a, 4a, 6a, 7a) by closing the gripping mechanism 1 and the gripping mechanism 2 respectively. Is gripping stably.
Further, a plane PB formed by a pair of fingers provided in each gripping mechanism and a drive mechanism that supports the pair of fingers is opposed to each other, and these planes PB are in the opening / closing direction A and the moving direction of the gripping mechanisms 1 and 2. Since it is arranged so as to be orthogonal to the plane PA along C, even if the distance between the gripping mechanism 1 and the gripping mechanism 2 is minimized, the drive mechanism 5 and the drive mechanism 8 are located above the gripping object 10. Therefore, the periphery of the grasped object 10 and the drive mechanism 5 and the drive mechanism 8 do not interfere with each other.
Therefore, the work can be performed even when interference with the surroundings becomes a problem, such as the work of inserting the grasped object 10 into a place where there is an obstacle around.

また、幅が途中で異なる対象物、十字型対象物、T字型対象物等に関しても、該把持対象物と駆動機構5及び駆動機構8とが干渉することがないので、容易に把持することができる。また、上記把持対象物を把持機構1の指3,4間に発生する把持力と、把持機構2の指6,7間に発生する把持力と、把持機構1,2間に発生する把持力により把持しているので安定した把持が可能となる。   Further, an object having a different width, a cross-shaped object, a T-shaped object, and the like can be easily grasped because the grasping object does not interfere with the drive mechanism 5 and the drive mechanism 8. Can do. Further, the gripping force generated between the fingers 3 and 4 of the gripping mechanism 1, the gripping force generated between the fingers 6 and 7 of the gripping mechanism 2, and the gripping force generated between the gripping mechanisms 1 and 2. Since it is gripped by this, stable gripping becomes possible.

図4は同じ本実施の形態1のロボットハンドで断面形状が円形の把持対象物10を把持した場合のロボットハンドと把持対象物の状態を下側から見た場合の図である。
把持機構1及び把持機構2を閉じると共に、把持機構1と把持機構2との間隔を狭めることにより把持対象物10を4箇所にて把持している。
また、把持機構1の指3,4間に発生する把持力と、把持機構2の指6,7間に発生する把持力と、把持機構1,2間に発生する把持力により把持対象物10を把持しているので安定した把持が可能となる。
また、把持機構1の指3,4及び把持機構2の指6,7の先端部は、指の開閉軸(開閉方向A)と直交する面に対し傾斜した傾斜面3b,4b,6b,7bを有しており、先端部の断面形状(平面PBに垂直な断面)は五角形としている。
傾斜面3b,4b,6b,7bを、断面形状が円形の把持対象物10の中心方向に垂直な面とすれば、この傾斜面で把持対象物を把持するので、より安定した把持が可能となる。
FIG. 4 is a view of the state of the robot hand and the gripping object viewed from below when the gripping object 10 having a circular cross-sectional shape is gripped by the same robot hand of the first embodiment.
The gripping object 1 and the gripping mechanism 2 are closed, and the gripping object 10 is gripped at four locations by narrowing the interval between the gripping mechanism 1 and the gripping mechanism 2.
Further, the gripping object 10 is generated by the gripping force generated between the fingers 3 and 4 of the gripping mechanism 1, the gripping force generated between the fingers 6 and 7 of the gripping mechanism 2, and the gripping force generated between the gripping mechanisms 1 and 2. Since it is gripping, stable gripping is possible.
Further, the tip portions of the fingers 3 and 4 of the gripping mechanism 1 and the fingers 6 and 7 of the gripping mechanism 2 are inclined surfaces 3b, 4b, 6b, and 7b that are inclined with respect to a plane orthogonal to the finger opening / closing axis (opening / closing direction A). The cross-sectional shape (cross-section perpendicular to the plane PB) of the tip is a pentagon.
If the inclined surfaces 3b, 4b, 6b, and 7b are surfaces perpendicular to the center direction of the grasped object 10 having a circular cross-sectional shape, the grasped object is grasped by the inclined surface, and thus more stable grasping is possible. Become.

断面が円形の対象物を安定して把持するためには、図4のように指先端断面を五角形にして、一対の指の開閉軸と直交する面と、この直交面に対し傾斜した傾斜面とを有する形状とする他、図5に示すように、各指の断面(平面PBに垂直な断面)を円形(図5(a))、円弧と平面(図5(b))、六角形(図5(c))にしてもよい。
また、図5のような断面形状にすれば、円形の穴をもつ把持対象物を穴の内側から安定して把持することも可能である。
なお、断面形状が四角形の対象物のみ把持する場合は、ロボットハンド指先端の断面形状は一対の指の開閉軸と直交する面を有する四角形でも構わない。
In order to stably hold an object having a circular cross section, a finger tip cross section is made pentagonal as shown in FIG. 4, and a plane orthogonal to the pair of finger opening and closing axes and an inclined plane inclined with respect to this orthogonal plane As shown in FIG. 5, the cross-section (cross-section perpendicular to the plane PB) of each finger is circular (FIG. 5 (a)), arc and plane (FIG. 5 (b)), hexagon, as shown in FIG. (FIG. 5C) may be used.
In addition, if the cross-sectional shape is as shown in FIG. 5, it is possible to stably grip a gripping object having a circular hole from the inside of the hole.
When only the object having a quadrangular cross-sectional shape is gripped, the cross-sectional shape of the tip of the robot hand finger may be a quadrilateral having a surface orthogonal to the opening / closing axis of the pair of fingers.

また、上記実施の形態では、駆動機構5、駆動機構8、相対位置変更用駆動機構9がそれぞれ直線上を動く機構(直動機構)を示したが、図6のように、相対位置変更用駆動機構15として平行リンクもしくはベルト駆動により、把持機構1用リンク11,12及び把持機構2用リンク13,14が回転軸Dに対して駆動する機構(リンク機構)としてもよい。
さらに、図7のように、駆動機構5及び駆動機構8に関しても直動機構ではなく、それぞれ平行リンクもしくはベルト駆動により、回転軸E1,E2に対して駆動する駆動機構(リンク機構)16,17としてもよい。
In the above-described embodiment, the drive mechanism 5, the drive mechanism 8, and the relative position changing drive mechanism 9 each move on a straight line. However, as shown in FIG. The drive mechanism 15 may be a mechanism (link mechanism) in which the grip mechanism 1 links 11 and 12 and the grip mechanism 2 links 13 and 14 are driven with respect to the rotation axis D by a parallel link or belt drive.

相対位置変更用駆動機構(冗長直動機構)18に回転型の電動モータを2個備えることにより、把持機構1と把持機構2とを独立に駆動できる。従って、相対位置変更用駆動機構18のストロークの範囲内で、把持機構1と把持機構2とを独立に配置できるため、相対位置変更用駆動機構18のストロークの任意の位置で把持対象物を把持し、周辺との干渉を防止することが可能である。
FIG. 8A shows two rotary electric motors for the relative position changing drive mechanism 18, and one rotary electric motor for each of the drive mechanism 5 of the gripping mechanism 1 and the drive mechanism 8 of the gripping mechanism 2. It is prepared one by one.
By providing two rotary electric motors in the relative position changing drive mechanism (redundant linear motion mechanism) 18, the gripping mechanism 1 and the gripping mechanism 2 can be driven independently. Accordingly, since the gripping mechanism 1 and the gripping mechanism 2 can be independently arranged within the range of the stroke of the relative position changing drive mechanism 18, the gripping object is gripped at an arbitrary position of the stroke of the relative position changing drive mechanism 18. In addition, it is possible to prevent interference with the surroundings.

図9は本発明の実施の形態3によるロボットハンドを示す構成図である。
実施の形態1とは把持機構1が、指3,4と駆動機構5とを上下方向Hに移動させる移動機構20を備える点が異なっている。
移動機構20は、例えば回転型の電動モータとボールねじとにより指3,4と駆動機構5とを動作させ、一対の指3,4とこの指を支持する駆動機構5とで形成される平面PBに沿って、把持機構1の開閉軸(開閉方向A)に直交する方向Hに、指3,4と駆動機構5とを移動させる。
Embodiment 3 FIG.
FIG. 9 is a block diagram showing a robot hand according to Embodiment 3 of the present invention.
The difference from Embodiment 1 is that the gripping mechanism 1 includes a moving mechanism 20 that moves the fingers 3 and 4 and the driving mechanism 5 in the vertical direction H.
The moving mechanism 20 is a plane formed by, for example, a pair of fingers 3 and 4 and the driving mechanism 5 that supports the fingers by operating the fingers 3 and 4 and the driving mechanism 5 by a rotary electric motor and a ball screw. The fingers 3 and 4 and the drive mechanism 5 are moved in a direction H perpendicular to the opening / closing axis (opening / closing direction A) of the gripping mechanism 1 along the PB.

把持対象物が非常に小さい場合は、把持機構1を移動機構20により上昇した姿勢で保持し、把持対象物を把持機構2のみで把持することにより、周囲との干渉を避けることが可能となる。   When the gripping object is very small, it is possible to avoid interference with the surroundings by holding the gripping mechanism 1 in a raised posture by the moving mechanism 20 and gripping the gripping object only by the gripping mechanism 2. .

また、細長いコネクタを把持・挿入する作業を行う際は、把持機構1、及び把持機構2を閉じることによりコネクタを把持し、ロボットハンドを移動してコネクタレセプタに該コネクタをあわせ、把持機構1を若干広げた後上昇させ、コネクタに接触しなくなる地点で把持機構1の指間隔を狭めた後、把持機構1を下降することによりコネクタの片側をコネクタレセプタに挿入する。次に、把持機構2を若干広げた後、一旦ロボットハンド及び把持機構1を上昇させてロボットハンドを180度回転し、ロボットを下降させて把持機構2を閉じることにより、挿入した側のコネクタを把持機構2で把持し、把持機構1を下降させることによりコネクタの反対側もコネクタレセプタに挿入することができる。
以上のような手順で作業を行えば、把持しにくい細長いコネクタもコネクタレセプタに挿入することが可能となる。
When gripping and inserting an elongated connector, the connector is gripped by closing the gripping mechanism 1 and the gripping mechanism 2, and the robot hand is moved to align the connector with the connector receptor. After slightly widening and raising, the finger spacing of the gripping mechanism 1 is narrowed at a point where it does not contact the connector, and then the gripping mechanism 1 is lowered to insert one side of the connector into the connector receptor. Next, after slightly widening the gripping mechanism 2, the robot hand and the gripping mechanism 1 are once raised, the robot hand is rotated 180 degrees, the robot is lowered and the gripping mechanism 2 is closed, so that the connector on the inserted side is By gripping with the gripping mechanism 2 and lowering the gripping mechanism 1, the opposite side of the connector can be inserted into the connector receptor.
If work is performed according to the procedure as described above, an elongated connector that is difficult to grasp can be inserted into the connector receptor.

なお図示しないが、把持機構2にも把持機構1と同様に駆動機構2の指6,7に平行な方向への駆動機構を設けて上下に駆動可能としてもよい。   Although not shown, the gripping mechanism 2 may be driven up and down by providing a drive mechanism in the direction parallel to the fingers 6 and 7 of the drive mechanism 2 as in the gripping mechanism 1.

図10は本発明の実施の形態4によるロボットハンドを示す構成図である。
実施の形態1とは把持機構1が、把持機構1の開閉軸(開閉方向A)に平行な軸Iの周りに、一対の指3,4と駆動機構5とを回転させる回転機構21(例えば回転型電動モータと減速機の組み合わせによる回転駆動)を有する点が異なっている。
回転機構21によりを一対の指3,4と駆動機構5とを回転させ、把持機構1を把持機構2の反対側方向へ広げることにより、相対位置変更用駆動機構9のストローク以上に把持機構1と把持機構2との間隔を広げることができ、より大きな対象物も把持できる。
Embodiment 4 FIG.
FIG. 10 is a block diagram showing a robot hand according to Embodiment 4 of the present invention.

The rotating mechanism 21 rotates the pair of fingers 3 and 4 and the driving mechanism 5 to spread the gripping mechanism 1 in the direction opposite to the gripping mechanism 2, so that the gripping mechanism 1 exceeds the stroke of the relative position changing drive mechanism 9. And the gripping mechanism 2 can be widened, and larger objects can be gripped.

また、回転機構21により一対の指3,4と駆動機構5とをさらに回転させ、把持機構1の指3,4を水平よりも上側に移動して退避させ、把持機構2のみで把持対象物を把持すれば、小さい対象物を把持する際の周辺との干渉を防止できる。   Further, the pair of fingers 3 and 4 and the drive mechanism 5 are further rotated by the rotation mechanism 21, and the fingers 3 and 4 of the gripping mechanism 1 are moved upward and retracted from the horizontal, and only the gripping mechanism 2 holds the object to be gripped. If it grips, interference with the periphery at the time of gripping a small target object can be prevented.

なお、図示しないが、把持機構2にも把持機構1と同様に、把持機構2の開閉軸(開閉方向A)に平行な軸の周りに、一対の指6,7と駆動機構8とを回転させる回転機構を備えてもよい。   Although not shown, the gripping mechanism 2 also rotates the pair of fingers 6 and 7 and the drive mechanism 8 around an axis parallel to the opening / closing axis (opening / closing direction A) of the gripping mechanism 2 as in the gripping mechanism 1. A rotating mechanism may be provided.

実施の形態5.
図11は本発明の実施の形態5によるロボットハンドを示す構成図である。

把持機構1及び把持機構2を回転可能とすることにより、図12(a)に示す把持対象物24を把持する際、周辺との干渉が防止でき、把持対象物24の部位25と部位26とをそれぞれ把持機構1と把持機構2とで把持することが可能である。
また、図12(b)に示す把持対象物27のように円弧形状をした把持対象物の両端28,29をそれぞれ把持機構1,把持機構2で把持することが可能である。
Embodiment 5 FIG.
FIG. 11 is a block diagram showing a robot hand according to the fifth embodiment of the present invention.
In the first embodiment, the gripping mechanism 1 and the gripping mechanism 2 are arranged around an axis orthogonal to the opening / closing axis (opening / closing direction A) of the gripping mechanisms 1 and 2 (around axes J1 and J2 parallel to the fingers in FIG. 11). The difference is that it has rotation mechanisms 22 and 23 (for example, rotation drive by a combination of a rotary electric motor and a speed reducer) for rotating each pair of fingers and the drive mechanism.
By enabling the gripping mechanism 1 and the gripping mechanism 2 to rotate, when gripping the gripping object 24 shown in FIG. 12A, interference with the surroundings can be prevented, and the parts 25 and 26 of the gripping object 24 can be prevented.

上記実施の形態5では、把持機構1及び把持機構2の両方に回転機構23,24を設けたが、どちらか一方のみ設けても良い。
また、回転軸の方向は一対の指の開閉方向Aに直交する軸であれば、上記方向(指に平行な回転軸J1,J2)に限らない。移動方向Cに平行な回転軸であっても良い。
In the fifth embodiment, the rotation mechanisms 23 and 24 are provided in both the gripping mechanism 1 and the gripping mechanism 2, but only one of them may be provided.
Further, the direction of the rotation axis is not limited to the above direction (the rotation axes J1 and J2 parallel to the fingers) as long as the direction is orthogonal to the opening / closing direction A of the pair of fingers. A rotation axis parallel to the movement direction C may be used.

このように、本実施の形態によれば、曲線状の把持対象物など、把持対象物の把持箇所が平行でない対象物も安定して把持できる効果がある。
また、回転軸が移動方向Cに平行な回転軸の場合はこの回転機構を有する把持機構を不要なときに退避させることができ、周囲との干渉が厳しい場合でも作業可能となる効果がある。
As described above, according to the present embodiment, there is an effect that it is possible to stably grip an object whose gripping position of the gripping target object is not parallel, such as a curved gripping target object.
Further, when the rotation axis is a rotation axis parallel to the moving direction C, the gripping mechanism having this rotation mechanism can be retracted when not required, and there is an effect that the work can be performed even when interference with the surroundings is severe.
